Your parents might not believe it, but Pakistan is climbing up the tourist radar.
You can now get a visa online — a stark contrast to the way things were even a few years ago. You don't even need to be on a tour or have a no-objection certificate. You can go and enjoy yourself in the sky-high mountains, the endless valleys, and in the temples. It could be the trip of a lifetime.
Of course, there are a few things you should know before you go. You should ready yourself with a little Urdu, and be prepared to become addicted to chai tea. From there, we've got you covered.
Respect the local culture, and come hungry.
Pakistan is the mountain destination you need to add to your list.
